Having tried using three types of 28.8k modems - SupraFAX, Motorola 3400 and Courier Sportster Vi - I've been somewhat disappointed by the little difference they've show from the SupraFAX 14.4k modem I've been using before. I have taken my own advice and read Demon's Tuning.faq and Modem.txt to alter the settings in NOS and on the modem, but I'm still getting less than 3000cps for plain text with slightly higher figures for binaries (which I was surprised about). Whereas with the 14.4k modem I was getting 1700-1900cps binaries with 1900-2300cps for text and news.) If anyone has any suggestions or comments that can help me, I would be most grateful. My set-up: Falcon030 4/65+85, TOS 4.04, fpatch2.prg, HSModem6 (drvin & scc set to AtariWorld October 1995), CPX and NOS set to 134 baud (150 seems to be roughly the same) and mru/mss set to 1500/1460 (again, I've tried 576/536 - and it's about the same). The modem responds with 28800 connect rate, 57600 computer rate with L-APM protocol and v42bis compression) Regards, Andrew -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Andrew Wood 54 Ely Street, CV37 6LN, UK awood@f030.demon.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
